Zann could not help but feel the uneasy beating of his heart. He found the feeling discomforting, making him furrow his brows as his right hand instinctively reached out to his chest, slightly pounding it in an attempt to calm himself down.
Aranea cocked her head to the side, her eyes widening as she watched him pounding his chest.
"Hey, are you alright? Are you too angry that it is making your heart feel uneasy?"

Zann was never alone with a woman unless if it was a teacher. It wasn't an issue to him if he was paired with a woman during classes or missions--he would always get the job done alone without their help, anyway.
But with Aranea involved in his ordeal since she is his Summoner, Zann has no choice but to stick with her--even after this ordeal.
